woody64 Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 I have seen also the Prusssian and (not public) the British Army. How many figs do you own in total? Woody64 Quote
Eurobricks Emperor Bonaparte Posted April 1, 2010 Eurobricks Emperor Posted April 1, 2010 Very impressive Fordo! I've stopped expanding my French army a long time ago, but this brings back a lot of good memories. Quote
General Redwater Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 (edited) Wow that is a big French army! I`m still building mine up, but I am not nearly as close as you. Edited April 1, 2010 by General Redwater Quote
General Armendariz Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 This makes my army (64, 81 including the 17 custom French Fusilier's I made) look puny compared to yours. I must well done! I'm guessing you've been collecting for a long time? Quote
Fordo Posted April 1, 2010 Author Posted April 1, 2010 I started collecting in 2006, and ironically it began with me and Bonaparte bidding for Red and Blue Napoleonic armies over at Classic-Castle, which didn't materialize. And when Bonaparte posted his army over here at Eurobricks I joined to post my army as well. Back then we also had Mosana making his stunning decals, wish he'd come back. Quote

I was not aware you were also bidding on that army at CC. It's already some time ago, my memory is probably a bit faded. Who was winning the deal before it all got canceled by the seller? Why did you stop? I concluded my French army was big enough for any future diorama and/or MOCing needs. However, I'm still collecting another army faction which is growing nicely. I'm not going to share any details at this point because I don't want to see certain figs go up in price on BL/eBay Quote

Who was winning the deal before it all got canceled by the seller? I had put in a full offer for the Blue army, while I believe you had offered for all three before he stopped responding. Quote
Zorro Posted April 2, 2010 Posted April 2, 2010 Nice army indeed, I added it to the Pirates Army index too. Thanks for sharing . Quote
Commodore Hornbricker Posted April 2, 2010 Posted April 2, 2010 Great army! Are you still adding to it or has it reached its maximum size? Quote
Fordo Posted April 2, 2010 Author Posted April 2, 2010 I plan to add more line Infantry as well as cavalry. I also would like to build up my Prussian army in order to recreate part of the Jena-Auerstedt Campaign. Quote
Ratshot Posted April 2, 2010 Posted April 2, 2010 I plan to add more line Infantry as well as cavalry. I also would like to build up my Prussian army in order to recreate part of the Jena-Auerstedt Campaign. Do you have a goal on how many you want? 500etc. Quote
Fordo Posted April 2, 2010 Author Posted April 2, 2010 I'd like to have 40 more French line Infantry making the total 200 line Infantry, as well as a regiment of Hussars and possibly some Chevau-Légers (Lancers). As for the Prussians, I'd like for them to at least equal my French army in size. Quote
General Armendariz Posted April 3, 2010 Posted April 3, 2010 What I would someday LOVE to see is your army and Bonaparte's army both combined for a couple photos. Or for a LEGO show. That would be amazing being that together you two have over 577 men! Quote
